Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1, on
insens350 [35]
1) We have that there are in total 6 outcomes If we name the chips by 1a, 1b, 3 ,5 the combinations are: 1a,3 \ 1b, 3 \1a, 5\ 1b, 5\ 3,5\1a,1b. Of those outcomes, only one give Miguel a profit, 1-1. THen he gets 2 dollars and in the other cases he lose 1 dollar. Thus, there is a 1/6 probability that he gets 2$ and a 5/6 probability that he loses 1$.
2) We can calculate the expected value of the game with the following: E=\frac{1}{6}*2- \frac{5}{6} *1. In general, the formula is E= \sum{p*V} where E is the expected value, p the probability of each event and V the value of each event. This gives a result of E=2/6-5/6=3/6=0.5$ Hence, Miguel loses half a dollar ever y time he plays.
3) We can adjust the value v of the winning event and since we want to have a fair game, the expecation at the end must be 0 (he must neither win or lose on average). Thus, we need to solve the equation for v:
0=\frac{1}{6}v -\frac{5}{6} =0. Multiplying by 6 both parts, we get v-5=0 or that v=5$. Hence, we must give 5$ if 1-1 happens, not 2.
4) So, we have that the probability that you get a red or purple or yellow sector is 2/7. We have that the probability for the blue sector is only 1/7 since there are 7 vectors and only one is blue. Similarly, the 2nd row of the table needs to be filled with the product of probability and expectations. Hence, for the red sector we have 2/7*(-1)=-2/7, for the yellow sector we have 2/7*1=2/7, for the purple sector it is 2/7*0=0, for the blue sector 1/7*3=3/7. The average payoff is given by adding all these, hence it is 3/7.
5) We can approach the problem just like above and set up an equation the value of one sector as an unknown. But here, we can be smarter and notice that the average outcome is equal to the average outcome of the blue sector.  Hence, we can get a fair game if we make the value of the blue sector 0. If this is the case, the sum of the other sectors is 0 too (-2/7+0+2/7) and the expected value is also zero.
6) We want to maximize the points that he is getting. If he shoots three points, he will get 3 points with a probability of 0.30. Hence the average payoff is 0.30*3=0.90. If he passes to his teammate, he will shoot for 2 points, with a success rate of 0.48. Hence, the average payoff is 0.48*2=0.96. We see that he should pass to his player since 0.06 more points are scored on average.
7) Let us use the expections formula we mentioned in 1. Substituting the possibilities and the values for all 4 events (each event is the different profit of the business at the end of the year).
E=0.2*(-10000)+0.4*0+0.3*5000+0.1*8000=-2000+0+1500+800=300$
This is the average payoff of the firm per year.
8) The firm goes even when the total profits equal the investment. Suppose we have that the firm has x years in business. Then x*300=1200 must be satisfied, since the investment is 1200$ and the payoff per year is 300$. We get that x=4. Hence, Claire will get her investment back in 4 years.

The weight of an organ in adult males has a bell shaped distribution with a mean of 320 grams and a standard deviation of 20 gra
Stells [14]

Answer:

a) 300 and 340

b) 95%

c) 5%

d) 81.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of an organ in adult males has a bell shaped(normal distribution).

Mean weight = 320 grams

Standard deviation = 20 grams

Part a) About 68% of organs weight between:

According to the empirical rule:

  • 68% of the data values lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean
  • 95% of the data values lie within 2 standard deviation of the mean
  • 99.7% of the data values lie within 3 standard deviation of the mean

Thus, 68% of the data values lie in the range: Mean - 1 standard deviation to Mean + 1 Standard Deviation.

Using the values of Mean and Standard deviation, we get:

Mean - 1 Standard Deviation = 320 - 20 = 300 grams

Mean + 1 Standard Deviation = 320 + 20 = 340 grams

This means 68% of the organs will weigh between 300 and 340 grams.

Part b) What percentage of organs weighs between 280 grams and 360 grams?

In order to find what percentage of organs weight between the given range, we need to find how much far these values are from the mean.

Since, mean is 320 and 280 is 40 less than mean, we can write:

280 = 320 - 40

280 = 320 - 2(2)

280 = 320 - 2 Standard Deviations

Similarly,

360 = 320 + 40

360 = 320 + 2 Standard Deviations

So, we have to tell what percentage of values lie within 2 standard deviation of the mean. According to the empirical law, this amount is 95%.

So, 95% of the organs weigh between 280 grams and 360 grams.

Part c) What percentage of organs weighs less than 280 grams or more than 360 grams?

From the previous part we know that 95% of the organs weight between 280 grams and 360 grams.

It is given that the distribution is bell shaped. The total percentage under a bell shaped distribution is 100%. So in order to calculate how much percentage of values are below 280 and above 360, we need to subtract the percentage of values that are between 280 and 360 from 100% i.e.

Percentage of Value outside the range = 100% - Percentage of  values inside the range

So,

Percentage of organs weighs less than 280 grams or more than 360 grams = 100 - Percentage of organs that weigh between 280 grams and 360 grams

Percentage of organs weighs less than 280 grams or more than 360 grams = 100% - 95%

= 5%

So, 5% of the organs weigh less than 280 grams or more than 360 grams.

Part d) Percentage of organs weighs between 300 grams and 360 grams.

300 is 1 standard deviation below the mean and 360 is 2 standard deviations above the mean.

Previously it has been established that, 68% of the data values lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean i.e

From 1 standard deviation below the mean to 1 standard deviation above the mean, the percentage of values is 68%. Since the distribution is bell shaped and bell shaped distribution is symmetric about the mean, so the percentage of values below the mean and above the mean must be the same.

So, from 68% of the data values that are within 1 standard deviation from the mean, half of them i.e. 34% are 1 standard deviation below the mean and 34% are 1 standard deviation above the mean. Thus, percentage of values from 300 to 320 is 34%

Likewise, data within 2 standard deviations of the mean is 95%. From this half of the data i.e. 47.5% is 2 standard deviations below the mean and 47.5% is 2 standard deviations above the mean. Thus, percentage of values between 320 and 360 grams is 47.5%

So,

The total percentage of values from 300 grams to 360 grams = 34% + 47.5% = 81.5%

Therefore, 81.5% of organs weigh between 300 grams and 360 grams

Can someone help me with this question: What is the 40th term of these sequences below. 13, 26, 39, 52,...... 6, 12, 18, 24,....
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:520; 240

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 13, 26, 39, 52,......

a = First term = 13

d = common difference = 26 - 13 = 13

40th term = a + (n - 1)d = a + (40-1)d = a + 39d

= 13 + (39 × 13)

= 13 + 507

= 520

b. 6, 12, 18, 24,.......

a = First term = 6

d = common difference = 12 - 6 = 6

40th term = a + 39d

= 6 + 39(6)

= 6 + 234.

= 240
